Request for SF mag verification of Modern Fable Lions and gazelles (antelopes, humans)

[Garson O'Toole]

In June there was a discussion on this list about the fable/proverb
concerning a lion and a gazelle. Here is a link to the initiating post
in the archives:

Based on the content of some past messages there are some SF fans on
the list who might have access to Analog magazine in 1986. I am trying
to verify a citation that contains a variant of the proverb with an
antelope, and it is difficult to find the appropriate issues in a
library.

Two matches in Google Books give conflicting information, but both
matches indicate that the text below is supposed to appear on page 36
in an issue dated 1986:

A lion wakes up each morning thinking, "All I've got to do today is
run faster than the slowest antelope."

An antelope wakes up thinking, "All I've got to do today is run faster
than the fastest lion."

A human wakes up thinking, "To hell with who's fastest, I'll outlast
the bastards."

I am trying to construct a full citation. Here is the conflicting
information from GB:

Analog science fiction/science fact: Volume 79, Issues 4-6
Analog science fiction/science fact: Volume 106, Issues 7-9

Here is a link into Google Books:

If a list member can find this quotation in Analog magazine and send
me (or the list) the cite information that would be very kind. Knowing
the name of the article and the author would be helpful. (Scans would
be perfect if it is easy for you to create them, but providing the
citation data by itself would be great. [Scans cannot be sent to the
list, of course])

Thanks, Garson
